The DJI Mini 3 drone has seen a significant price cut of $100, bringing its price down to $329, matching its record low for Black Friday. This discount makes the compact and easy-to-use drone an even more attractive option for beginners and hobbyists looking to get into drone photography.

The DJI Mini 3 is a popular choice among drone enthusiasts due to its compact size, weighing just 8.8 ounces (249 grams), and its ability to capture high-quality 4K HDR video at up to 30 frames per second, or up to 60 frames per second at lower resolutions. It also features a 48MP still camera, making it an excellent option for those looking to capture stunning aerial footage and photos.

One of the key advantages of the DJI Mini 3 is its ease of use, making it an ideal choice for those new to drone flying. The drone doesn't require FAA registration to fly in the US, making it an attractive option for casual users. Additionally, the package includes a battery and DJI's RC-N1 remote, which doesn't have an integrated display but can be upgraded to one for an additional $100.

While the DJI Mini 3 may not have some of the advanced features of DJI's costlier drones, such as object avoidance, it remains a great option for beginners. The drone's lack of front, rear, or side sensors means users will need to take care when flying it low or in crowded airspaces. However, for its price, the DJI Mini 3 offers excellent value and performance.

For those looking for an even more affordable option, DJI's Neo drone is available for $199, although it lacks some of the Mini 3's image capabilities and doesn't come with a remote. A recent update did add vertical video capabilities to the Neo, but it still falls short of the Mini 3's overall performance.

With the DJI Mini 3's price cut, now may be the perfect time to invest in a drone, especially considering that it might become more difficult to get one in the future. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned drone enthusiast, the DJI Mini 3 is an excellent choice for anyone looking to capture stunning aerial footage and photos.
